the existing amount(s) owed to the lienholder(s) plus the costs of sale could be subject to lienholder approval, which approval may be exercised at the sole

Homes in Coto de Caza
One of the oldest and largest private gated communities in the US, Coto de Caza means “Reserve of Hunt” in Portuguese, and was originally planned as a private country gun club. John Wayne kept a horse there, and used the shooting range.
The first developments were started in the 1970's, and the last neighborhoods in the South Bend area were completed around 2000. The Coto de Caza real estate market is divided into about 60 neighborhoods. Each was constructed by various developers, resulting in a mix of custom and semi-custom homes.
Home styles in Coto de Caza include a few condos, townhomes, single family homes, custom luxury homes, and equestrian estates. A very few undeveloped lots remain. This is considered a very upscale area, with a median family income over $140,000, and most Coto de Caza homes are valued from $500,000 to $2,000,000, and as high as $20,000,000 or more.
